    IGN Intimidation Factor

    The IGN of the player usually predicts how good they are. A logical or sophisticated name would usually indicate a better player for example Vibr4nt- or -Aggression. Notice that the "-" is commonly used by "WOGL" players these days. This just adds to the illusion that the player is of high calibre. However on the other, players that use stupid and illogically long names seem to just be just bad. For example, irthebest6969 or boblewis1232332. I have noticed a pattern where IGN with an unoriginal beginning such as "awesome" followed by a spam of numbers like "123123123" are usually HORRIBLE players.

    Have you noticed this? Discuss/

    Mellow
    hmm people with "-" or any other prefixes of any kind shows that they've been on the internet for longer periods of time than those with retarded names.

    longer time spent=better you are.
    I see what you did there.

    True that. I guess a better name also indicates that the player is older and has that bigger vocab than spammin' 12 year olds.

    Lol I reckon its just a generalisation. Some players with such and such names are pretty good. My alt's name is even worse (leetdragon100) eww... Your name actually has that extra tad of creativity though. You're a solid player i know.

    Yes, but the majority of players who have a '-' in front of their name is pretty good player.

    Yeah, a clear example. A stupid name like foxy+38472938423947290340293849 is just =.=
    However, once you incorporate foxy into a more creative way it becomes a lot more impressive.
